Securing Habitat

Not only are elephants being hunted to extinction, but their last refuges are disappearing too, driven by the economic growth Africa is experiencing. In order to protect elephants, we need to secure space for them to roam.

Living with Wildlife

Connecting People with Nature

Illegal poaching, loss of habitat, human-wildlife conflict – Space for Giants is tackling all of these issues and seeing real impact on the ground. However, what underpins all of this work is education and awareness raising.

Experience

The future of the world’s remaining giants and the wild landscapes they inhabit lies entirely in the hands of people like you. But not until their fate becomes your passion and not until that passion drives you to take action and make decisions that can change the future for wildlife. The future for people and your future. We want to awaken that passion in you by giving you a life changing experience. We want you to join us on a journey for giants.

Today is Elephant Appreciation Day, a time to give thanks for these magnificent creatures and to pledge to do everything we can to preserve them for future generations.

We're incredibly proud of the work we and our partners do to strengthen capacity along the criminal trial process in order to create a real deterrent for the illegal killing of wildlife. By engaging with the heads of national prosecution agencies, judiciary and wildlife agencies, and by supporting frontline rangers, we have been able to help reduce elephant poaching.

However, encouraging signs should not prompt complacency. The challenges facing elephants loom ever larger. Aside from poaching there are also the critical challenges posed by loss of habitat, a rapidly expanding human population, and human-elephant conflict.

There is not one solution that can be implemented by one country. It can only be done together, through common commitment to the conservation cause and thanks to support from people like you. #LoveElephants 🐘
